Custom Shop Cabinets

I started designing and building my own shop cabinets 25 years ago because I needed a place to store things. I also learned how to build shop cabinets quickly and easily. Soon I started throwing away machinery stands for the smaller machines, and put the small machines on cabinets that turned the wasted space under them into useful space to store things. When the router table and air cleaner were built, every square inch was filled with drawers so no space was wasted. No matter how small or large your shop is, if you make it all useable space, you double its size. You can see more of the shop on my workshop tour.

Greetings Tom… I’m the same way… I build all my shop cabinets, and hate those metal stands they give you that comes with a new tool. The “footprint” is way too big, and they take up so much floor space…I’m with you on the cabinets. Besides, it’s much more fun to build your own, and customize them to your needs.

I had to zoom in some of the pictures, but I found it! 5th picture, just to the right – SAW DUST – HA! LOL. What a beautiful shop! I’m in the process of reorganization myself, you’ve set the bar awefully high, I have no hope….... Great job!
